GA-890FXA-UD5 AMD 890FX (Socket AM3) DDR3 Motherboard

The 890FXA-UD5 motherboard is designed to offer a stable, high-speed platform for delivering amazingly fast data transfer via the Gigabyte 333 onboard acceleration technologies. Featuring the world’s first USB 3.0 logo certified host controller from NEC Electronics, the AMD 800A series motherboards allow users to take advantage of super fast USB transfer rates of up to 5Gbps, delivering 10x faster data transfer compared to USB 2.0. Utilizing the industry's first Serial ATA Revision 3.0 solution via the AMD SB850 chipset, the Gigabyte AMD 800A series motherboards offer native 6 ports of next generation high speed data storage devices support with data transfer speeds of up to 6Gbps. Coupled with RAID 0 (Stripe) mode, SATA Revision 3.0 enables a data transfer boost of up to 4x the speed of SATA Revision 2.0. The AMD 800A series motherboards introduce a unique hardware design with lower resistance fuses for ensuring lower voltage drops and providing more stable and plentiful power delivery. All USB ports also benefit from a 3x power boost for better power delivery to power hungry USB devices.

Superb

Well done Gigabyte, this is an exceptional board. Layout and cooling are well thought out, quality components are used and the features list is impressive. Overclocking features are excellent and comprehensive too. Having illuminated buttons on the board for power, reset and bios clear is a particularly nice thought, and all the entire board is consistent with the level of attention to detail.
SATA connectors face outwards, rather than up straight out of the PCB, meaning long PCIE cards clear with no problem. Control over which SATA pairs act in raid or otherwise is a nice touch too.
There's nothing I don't like about it, and it's been rock solid so far, so a definite 5 stars!

great

this is one of the best boards you can get for a amd system i have my 955 oc to 3.7ghz with out changing the voltage and my gtx 460 at 845/2100 at 1050mv. i previously had an asus board and my 460 wouldnt overclock at all without a bsod and the cpu would even overclock to 3.4ghz. it also has a great layout. 6x sata 3 ports though i have only stat 2 drives at the moment but they still work fine in a sata 2 controller. also my gaming performance has shot up a lot. with my asus board on vantage go P11045 and with this gigabyte mobo i scored P18956 and with those overclocks i scored P20382.
i will definetly stick with gigabyte and ocuk.
